Lens Technology

A different approach to optics

Most sunglasses are too dark, overly polarized, and primarily about fashion. They may make you squint less but don't help you see better.

We fixed that with our notch filtering technology.

We filter light with such precision that we can eliminate a specific wavelength (light color/energy) you don't need and enhance the wavelengths you do. It's noise-canceling for your eyes. You see better, are more relaxed, and can always keep your glasses on - in the car, in the cafe, and scrolling your phone.

FLT Lens Technology plus minus

FLT lenses deliver Method Seven's aviation-specific notch filtering in a lightweight, impact-resistant polymer. Engineered as an alternative to traditional mineral glass, these non-polarized lenses combine a neutral gray base with a blue flash mirror coating to manage intense sunlight while preserving natural color perception. Anti-reflective interior coatings reduce distracting reflections, while protective surface treatments support durability and clear vision. Their lightweight construction makes FLT lenses particularly well suited for aerobatic flying, open-air aircraft, and extended wear.

25% Visible Light Transmission plus minus

At 25% Visible Light Transmission (VLT), FLT Rx lenses allow more visible light to reach the eyes than darker sunglass tints. Method Seven's advanced notch filtering selectively reduces harsh wavelengths while preserving useful light, contrast, and natural color perception. Designed specifically for prescription aviation eyewear, this lighter tint supports comfortable daytime flying and clear visibility of instruments and electronic displays across changing light conditions.

Frame Technology

Method Seven Pilot frames are engineered for the specific demands of aviation, combining lightweight materials, flexibility, durability, and a secure fit. Our headset-compatible designs feature ultra-thin temples that minimize pressure, help maintain headset seals, and reduce interference with flight helmets and oxygen equipment. Developed and tested with professional and general aviation pilots, each frame is purpose-built for comfort, stability, and clear communication during flight.

The Aviatrix plus minus

Designed specifically for women pilots, the Aviatrix combines classic aviator styling with lightweight, hand-tooled titanium construction. Its slim profile and tangle-free nose pads provide a comfortable fit without catching in longer hair, while thin temples accommodate aviation headsets and flight helmets. Particularly well suited for narrower faces, the Aviatrix is trusted by professional air racers, including Vicky Benzing, for its secure fit and dependable comfort.

Titanium Frame Technology plus minus

Method Seven titanium frames are hand-tooled for strength, flexibility, and lasting durability. Lightweight and naturally corrosion-resistant, titanium provides a comfortable fit while standing up to the demands of frequent flying. Its hypoallergenic properties make it suitable for extended wear, while precisely engineered temples flex to accommodate aviation headsets and flight helmets without unnecessary pressure.

Method Seven Pilot

Method Seven scientifically develops eyewear engineered for the unique visual demands of aviation. Through in-house optical research, precision engineering, and extensive field testing with professional and general aviation pilots, we create purpose-built lenses and frames that enhance clarity, contrast, comfort, and protection. Our mission is to unlock the full potential of the most important flight instrument of all: the human eye.

Vicky Benzing

Method Seven lenses provide unsurpassed clarity and contrast which are critical for me to perform my best–whether I'm flying 10 feet off the ground or racing at 496.831 mph. I will not race and I will not fly without my Method Sevens.

Vicky Benzing is a talented aerobatic airshow pilot and the fastest woman in air racing. She has competed in both the Jet and Sport classes at the National Championship Air Races in Reno and will make history this year as the second woman to race in the Unlimited class.

Vicky earned her Ph.D. in Chemistry at UC Berkeley while obtaining her private pilot certificate. Despite a success in tech, her passion for flying became a second career.

With over 8,000 flight hours and 1,200 parachute jumps, she holds an airline transport pilot rating and commercial ratings in helicopters, seaplanes, and gliders. She began serious aerobatic training in 2005, competing and performing in over 200 airshows, including EAA AirVenture in Oshkosh, WI.

Benzing inspires women to pursue their dreams, demonstrating that with hard work, anything is possible.
